List of sequenced archaeal genomes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This list of sequenced archaeal genomes contains all the archaeal known to have publicly available complete genome sequences that have been assembled, annotated and deposited in public databases. Archea are of particular interest for biotechnology since they can exist under extreme conditions.
